The whole forms a structured pattern, typical of promotional or institutional objects from the 80s-90s, although the exact period cannot be confirmed without further clues. The main colors are blue, orange and white, providing a clear and recognizable contrast, consistent with the visual identity of SNCF's regional entities of that period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pin is presented in a transparent plastic bag, which suggests that it has not been worn or handled excessively. The visible finish is smooth and shiny, with an enamelled appearance on the front. The edge of the pin shows a light border, probably metallic, although the precise material is not identifiable from the photo. No major defects, chips or significant scratches are visible on the front through the bag, although some traces or dust are visible on the packaging itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe inscriptions are clear and perfectly legible: \"C.E.\", \"Champagne\", \"Ardenne\", \"SNCF\". This type of pin was often distributed during internal events or to distinguish members of a regional SNCF works council. The graphic style, sober and functional, corresponds to the institutional aesthetic of late 20th century France.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pin is compact, suitable for discreet wearing on a jacket, lapel or bag. It appears complete on the visible side, with an attachment system not detailed here as it is not observable through the bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSecond-hand item, sold as is, presented in its original plastic bag.
